MIAMI : Three-time Grand Slam champion Maria Sharapova will miss the Sony Ericsson Open, as will women’s world number two Dinara Safina and 2008 men’s champion Nikolay Davydenko, organizers said Wednesday.

The Miami tournament is the second of prestigious back-to-back hardcourt tournaments in the United States, coming immediately after this week’s event at Indian Wells, California.

Sharapova, who won the WTA title in Memphis in February, had been slated to play in Miami for the first time since 2007.

But an MRI exam on the sore right elbow that hindered her as she made a third-round exit in Indian Wells showed a bone bruise that is likely to sideline the Russian for three to six weeks.

Safina, a three-time Grand Slam finalist, remains sidelined by the back injury that forced her out of the Australian Open.

Davydenko is out with a broken left wrist. He had played one match at Indian Wells and then pulled out after an MRI revealed the wrist he injured in Rotterdam last month was, in fact, fractured.

ISLAMABAD PAKISTAN : Former Pakistan players, on Thursday, paid tribute to coach Bob Woolmer, whose tragic death during the ODI World Cup in the West Indies exactly three years ago had left everybody stunned.

“On the occasion of the third death anniversary of Bob Woolmer (March 18, 2010) PCB wishes to pay tribute to a man who did so much for Pakistan cricket. Woolmer’s progressive coaching methods made a huge impact on the game of cricket.

“Woolmer was a distinguished cricketer and a coach whose contributions to the game and especially Pakistan cricket will never be forgotten. More importantly Woolmer was an excellent human being, who enriched the lives of all those that he came in contact with,” a PCB statement said.

“He is and will always be missed. The entire Pakistan cricket community’s thoughts and prayers are with the Woolmer family,” it said.

Woolmer died on March 18 just a few hours after Pakistan’s shocking defeat at the hands of minnows Ireland and elimination from the mega-event.

“What happened was tragic. Bob’s death came as a big shock for all of us even before we could recover from the defeat to Ireland,” cricket365 quoted former Pakistan leg-spinner Mushtaq Ahmed as saying.

Inzamam-ul-Haq, who was the Pakistan captain in the World Cup and worked closely with Woolmer, said that the period spent in Jamaica after Woolmer’s death was the worst of his life.

“We were treated like murder suspects and all sorts of accusations were made without anyone realizing how close the players were to Woolmer,” Inzamam said.

“We worked as a team with Woolmer and there is no doubt that he was one of the best coaches I have seen in my career,” he added.

Danish Kaneria, who was a member of the World Cup squad, said that there was no doubt that Woolmer’s “shocking” death left the players shattered.

“He took it (the defeat) hard but we never expected it to end in his death. It was shocking for all of us,” Kaneria said.

He said Woolmer meant a lot to Pakistan cricket and this could be seen in the way as the Pakistan Cricket Board had also named a section of the national academy after him.

The Pakistan board also issued a tribute on the occasion of Woolmer’s third death anniversary pointing out he had done a lot for Pakistan cricket.

March Madness Trivia & Fun Facts

The phrase “March Madness” was coined by Henry V. Porter in 1939 to describe an Illinois high school basketball tourney. Brent Musburger first used it during NCAA coverage in 1982 causing a legal battle almost as insane as the playoffs.

But everyone finally worked things out and the madness was official. There isn’t a good record of who first called the playoffs “The Big Dance”, but it does describe the action.

Masters Golf Tournament 2010, “He’s baaack!” Tiger Woods has announced he will be a part of the Masters Golf Tournament 2010, a privilege he holds as a former Augusta National champion. It was never a matter of if he would return, but of when. And considering how tightly controlled media coverage is at that elite golf event – and how fruitless it will be for the likes of TMZ to use short term loans  to try to crash the party – he won’t have to field too many uncomfortable questions. No, that will be for another day, when Woods feels like talking. For now, enjoy Tiger Woods’ return.
